LETTER: Citizens United will be overturned

Now that the campaign season is over, we can finally get a break from all those awful ads. Most people know those ads and the huge sums of money that paid for them were unleashed by the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision.

But did you know we're now one quarter of the way to reversing that decision by amending the U.S. Constitution? As of Tuesday, we are.

Nearly 80% of Americans, including 68% of Republicans, 82% of independents, and 87% of Democrats, want a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.
